The Queen Doesn't Want to Die
Chapter 195
Yet it seemed that what Xian Mu Xuan had worked hard for was not up to the results he had expected. In fact, everyone was still not aware of the disbelief they had heard what Pei Zhang Xi had said. Success makes them surprised. Was he still the cold-hearted Prince who grew up at the border? Was he still the same man who would not hesitate to drive away every woman who would approach him? Isn't that change too fast?
Seeing that he was being ignored and that his words did not get the feedback he expected, Xian Mu Xuan clenched his hands in annoyance. He smiled awkwardly.
"It seems that the necessary explanation is enough. in the future I no longer want to hear others discuss this issue or even question the character of anyone without finding out the truth so that problems like this no longer recur." Pei Zhang Xi did not bother to respond either. He swept his gaze across the entire hall with a gaze full of warning.
"Life of His Highness the Crown Prince. His Highness the Crown Prince is wise." Everyone in the hall except the invited guests from the other empires stood up and bowed their bodies.
"Wake up all of you."
"Thank you Your Majesty."
Due to the problems that occurred, the banquet event finally ended early. The emperor allowed younger guests to retreat first and was allowed to stroll through the palace garden to chat with each other. Enjoying the moon and stars amidst the fragrant fragrance of blossoming flowers. While guests of the older generation would still be in the hall to talk about more important matters while having a drink.
Pei Shi Liang had already tailed Lu Jing Yu back to the Eastern palace ever since they exited the hall. Pei Shi Liang actually did not intend to follow Lu Jing Yu back to the Eastern palace at first because it was already night and he did not want to disturb his nephew even though he wanted to. Pei Shi Liang only wanted to escape from Xian Zi Xuan who continued to bother him. At least he had reason to reject Xian Zi Xuan's stale admonition of taking her for a walk that night.
"It looks like Crown Prince Shixian is interested in you. He looks good. Don't you want to consider it?" Lu Jing Yu glanced at the agitated-looking Pei Shi Liang walking beside her.
"That can't be sister-in-law." Pei Shi Liang exhaled. His eyes were filled with a great deal of doubt and despair.
"Why is it impossible?" Lu Jing Yu frowned.
"I have a desire to marry an ordinary man. Living simply in the suburbs. Enjoy the view as far as the eye can see. Sometimes we'll join hands when venturing into interesting places." Pei Shi Liang glared far away as he again sighed.
"So you won't consider it because he is a Crown Prince?" Lu Jing Yu began to understand the reason his sister seemed to be trying so hard to get away from Xian Zi Xuan even though the man looked good and had genuine feelings for her. He also understood Pei Shi Liang's feelings. She also would not be able to accept if not only she was the woman who was in her husband's heart and life. Finally Lu Jing Yu sighed helplessly. Women in this era must be tormented by the coyol tradition that requires her to let their husbands marry other women. Even up to four wives and several concubines and still have to let the concubine. Just thinking about it made him angry.
"Hm. That's it." Pei Shi Liang raised his head.
"then what? He is still a Crown Prince. Who can guarantee that since there is no woman in her backyard now then there will forever be none? If he became a king, it would not be uncommon for there to be a girl sent to him by their family with the aim of making a profit. Of those few girls, who knew there would be a girl who would get better than me and would love her. Then...what can I do when that happens?"
"Didn't your brother also be a Crown Prince, do you think he would also be tempted by another woman who would destroy my household?" Lu Jing Yu stopped her footsteps and looked at Pei Shi Liang seriously.
"Who can be likened to other men? I love my sister-in-law very much. After all, sister has a habit that will not allow herself to be touched by a woman. Where can be equated with Crown Prince Shixian?"
"Huf.... I won't be able to change your perspective and force you to follow my thoughts, but I have a little advice for you,..." Lu Jing Yu held onto Pei Shi Liang's shoulder as her eyes stared firmly at Pei Shi Liang. "There are two things that cannot be seen clearly in this world, namely the fate and content of the human heart, but when a good opportunity comes to you, think carefully about putting aside the bad things that could happen in the future because they are not certain. Lest you be sorry for missing the precious good opportunity that we have wasted."
Pei Shi Liang was stunned at Lu Jing Yu's advice. Is it he who thinks too far without considering everything?
